Translation ServicesAcademic TranslationAcademic translation services fall into two categories, each with distinct requirements:
Certified academic document translation is required when transcripts, diplomas, course descriptions, or recommendation letters must be submitted to universities, credential evaluation agencies (WES, ECE, NACES members), professional licensing boards, or immigration authorities such as USCIS. These translations must include a signed certificate of accuracy confirming the translation is complete and faithful to the original.
Research and manuscript translation is required when academic papers, theses, dissertations, abstracts, or grant proposals must be translated into English (or another language) for journal submission, conference presentation, or peer review. These translations require subject-matter expertise in the relevant discipline and adherence to academic formatting standards (APA, MLA, Chicago, Vancouver).
Tomedes provides both. Every academic translation is assigned to a linguist with documented expertise in the relevant subject area, reviewed by a second specialist, and delivered under ISO 17100:2015 quality standards.
Tomedes, as a global leader in translation services, is an ATA corporate member (No. 272444) and holds ISO 17100:2015 certification. Tomedes certified academic translations meet the requirements of universities, credential evaluation agencies (WES, ECE, and NACES member organizations), professional licensing boards, and immigration authorities including USCIS. Every certified academic translation is covered by the 1-Year Quality Guarantee.
Tomedes offers multiple service levels for academic translation. Standard translation provides accurate, terminology-consistent output suitable for internal review, admissions submissions, and credential evaluation. Publication-ready translation includes subject-matter expert translation, independent editing by a second linguist, and formatting to journal style requirements (APA, MLA, Chicago, Vancouver, or journal-specific guidelines). Both levels follow ISO 17100:2015 quality processes. For large-volume academic projects such as course catalogs or institutional communications, Tomedes offers AI translation with human post-editing to balance cost, speed, and quality. Journal-quality and publication-ready translations are always handled by human specialists.
Tomedes assigns academic translations to linguists with documented subject-matter expertise in the relevant discipline: natural sciences, social sciences, formal sciences, applied sciences, humanities, and interdisciplinary fields. Translators are vetted for academic qualifications, publication history (where relevant), and demonstrated proficiency with discipline-specific terminology. For research manuscripts, Tomedes matches translators who are active in or adjacent to the author's field.
Certified academic documents (transcripts, diplomas, recommendation letters) are typically delivered within 24-48 hours. Research manuscripts and longer academic texts are delivered within 2-5 business days depending on word count and complexity. Rush and same-day options are available for urgent deadlines. All files are processed under encrypted transfer protocols, and NDAs are available upon request. Every project is managed by a dedicated project manager available 24/7.
